Our Shared Journal

Hiii it's Bella and Hanny together again! We finally got together ((IRL)) and bared our souls into this 2-part episode lmao. In part 1, Bella talks about accepting and recognizing when to ask for help and learning to receive it. A lot of the time we like to think that we are super-humans who can do everything all at once, but no man is an island. We know how daunting vulnerability can be, but wouldn't the world be a much nicer place if we all try to be more compassionate with each other AND with ourselves?

HELLO WE'RE BACK✨ a little bit of life update from Hanny where she talks about grief, breakup, and finding love in between

What does love look and feel like to you? How do you know when you’re in love? Is it the warm fuzzy feelings? The green-eyed longings? A constant stream of images of their pretty smile in your brain? In this first part of Episode 3, we asked and answered questions around ✨(romantic)✨love

[TW: This episode contains personal experience with eating disorders.
